Thread: Automatic Life

Mine is at 220k km, it is behind at Td5.

I think mine will go for a while as it had a lot of country km in the first half of its life. I think most should do 250k km, I am sure you will get people saying they have experienced failures before 100k km and others that have go 500kkm.

Just ticked over 180,000km and fitted an ATF cooler today, and run TransmaxZ ....

... AND fitted a new XYZ switch as well (expensive little buggers!)

I'm optimistically expecting 250-300,000 ... With most of what's left towing 1.5t of Kamper.


.. Tell him he's dreaming ?

240k rebuilt. Just to be niggly it decided to chew the pump housing face up, which as that is also the main box housing meant a new box housing also :/ Ah the joys!

255k here.
When it goes it will be an Ashcroft Internalised 24 with a low stall torque converter.

Just over 160k here. Replaced the XYZ switch last year but otherwise no problems.

Mine is up to 312000+ kms.
Car had 'almost' regular servicing since new. Make of that what ya will....
My theory is this (for what it's worth), Land Rover have been using this Gearbox/Transmission, almost from day one. Apart from some fancy electronics bolted to it these days, it's basically still the same good 'ol ZF
(choose your flavor), 4hp22/24 etc etc...........


(except in Freelander 1's, but don't start me on that)

Depends on how it is treated I bought mine with 160k on it and previous owner had trans replace because of his stupid daughter flooring the Disco with a horse trailer on it from stand still.

At 200,000 the oil pump gear went because previous owners stupid mechanic put the oil pump gear the wrong way around and it finally broke, 2 trans is less than 200,000 kms, as I said if their not treated well then what hope do they have.
Cheers,
Mario

Haven't you heard of the advertisements for Freelander 1's being sold, converted to front wheel drive for economy ( yep its the wallet economy, don't get it fixed and you get wallet economy)
